Things We Saw Today

If you're a Benedict Cumberbatch fan, you probably already know he does a mean Alan Rickman impression. Well, the creators of The Simpsons have decided to utilize that talent for this Sunday's Valentine's-themed episode. Not only does he voice Severus Snape, he also does the Prime Minister. Unfortunately, the video is not embeddable, watch a clip over at Entertainment Weekly.

Things We Saw Today

I've long been a fan of Dustin Nguyen's Lil' Gotham characters. Well, after five years of trying to convince DC an out-of-continuity title like this could sell, it's being released as a digital first comic tomorrow!! Nguyen will be drawing as well as co-writing with Derek Fridolfs. (via DC Source blog)

Fans Do Cool Things

I think we've all been there. The moment someone you know finds out you haven't watched/read/played a particular bit of geek fandom they love and freak out on you? Yeah, I hate that. Host of Revision3's Tekzilla, Veronica Belmont, finds out the hard way just how crazy Whovians can be, in the funniest way possible. Plus, a Bonnie Burton cameo!

This Makes Sense

Revision3's new Social Media Director, and all-around awesome gal, Bonnie Burton is getting her own geeky crafting show on the new Stan Lee’s World of Heroes YouTube channel! It's called Geek DIY and it's well overdue if you ask me. Burton has been crafting her entire life and is one of the most entertaining people I know. You may remember her Star Wars Craft Book, Girls Against Girls, and other works. Here's the trailer for all the fun she's got coming up but hit the jump for the first episode starring Grant Imahara of MythBusters.
